12 Jun 99 - 03:51 PM (#86199) Subject: RE: music for a found harmonium From: Barbara I found the music on Simon Jeffes tape "Penguin Cafe Orchestra" and noticed it's been folk processed a bit in other versions I've heard. I ordered the tape from Public Radio Music Source, but I suspect our local folks will have it, too. Looks like you wanted sheet music tho. Try this blue clicky thing Blessings, Barbara |

05 Sep 99 - 11:35 AM (#111635) Subject: RE: music for a found harmonium From: Barbara I found it here, Alice: ABC Tunefinder's Page, though I don't remember exactly which list. There are several versions of the tune around -- people's ears tended to simplify it and the original can be heard on Stephen Jeffis' Penguin Cafe Orchestra. Blessings, Barbara |
